Let’s see. How a spa treatment feels after a glorious ride past idyllic beaches and citrus groves. How exquisite our evening meal tastes after a brisk climb up the California coast. Let’s enjoy the best of biking with the best of everything. The American Riviera. A foodie’s paradise. Four Seasons service. And sunsets that just don’t quit. Let’s, shall we?

Cruise on a scenic bike path, enjoying sun, surf and pristine Santa Barbara beaches. Pedal through historic Hope Ranch. Bike around the wetlands at Andrée Clark Bird Refuge Head into the star-studded hills and spin above the red-tiled roofs of Santa Barbara. For even more inspiring vistas, take on Gibraltar, a challenging but picturesque route that’s popular among local riders. Visit the “Queen of the Missions,” Old Mission Santa Barbara, and its meticulously manicured grounds. Soak up the scene in Santa Barbara’s Funk Zone, filled with galleries, surf shops, a distillery and brewery, and some of the region’s best wine-tasting rooms.
